3. Does Bell address the coverage issues at safety? No way. Bell, 34, wasn't known for his pass coverage when he was young, and he's certainly not going to excel now that he's at the end of his career. An opposing personnel executive described Bell this way: "They, in essence, have the same guy (in Landry). They're two strong safeties. (Bell) is a good run supporter, but somewhat of a liability on the back end. He'll have trouble against (Rob) Gronkowski and (Aaron) Hernandez . ,.. I don't see where the Jets have upgraded in coverage at safety. The run support is good, but they added two strong safeties and Eric Smith hasn't changed."

Still a decent depth player but he's getting on now. He was cut because his contract was way exceeding what he was able to offer our team.

I'd like to know if Miami offered him a reduced deal, or just decided to move on with fresh blood. Disappointing he signed with a division rival because now instead of wishing him the best I have to hope he fails miserably.

or maybe he still secretly plays for us, and we've deployed him to sign with the Jest as an undercover agent with the goal of sabotaging the Jest from within. What other reason would anybody have to join that media circus of a team out of choice if another offer was on the table?

You said 26 TDs which you just now claimed wasn't accurate. If you meant throwing TDs, that wasn't the Jets record as stated earlier in this thread.

He never gave a specific number. He just said the most TDs in a single season for the team. Still, 32 total tds isn't something I would be crowing about. Kordell Stewart had the same total 1 season, and Scott Mitchell had more.

he had 11 rush TDs.

32 is a low # but Marino only had as many as 32 two times in his career. in no way am I comparing him to Dan who is a top 5 all time QB but it is interesting to realize he only had 2 seasons w/ 32 or more total TDs
